This is to everyone.

It would appear that my ISP (and possibly others around the world) is
blocking e-mail sent from several other ISP who have been lax at stopping
spamming. This supposedly to protect us from receiving unwanted mail.

However, while I agree with what they are trying to achieve, it means that I
possibly haven't been receiving the personal mail that may have been sent to
me. It may also explain why I have not had many replies to my genealogy
requests. I have been a little disheartened by the shortage of answers out
there.

So if by any chance you did send me any mail which was returned to you,
could you try again and/or if it was not of a personal nature maybe post it
to the mail-list concerned.

Much appreciated.

Patricia
